The CSS WG updated the Working Draft of CSS Fonts. The new version is
here:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2011/WD-css3-fonts-20110324/
The new features compared to the previous draft are mostly related to
handling of low-level font capabilities: if a font contains alternative
versions for some glyphs, it is now possible to select those. Examples
are different kinds of digits (lining, old-style), swash characters, and
variants for different languages.
For OpenType only there is a special interface to enable arbitrary
features, beyond those for which CSS defines keywords.
Other changes include a new property to turn kerning off, and another to
turn synthesis of fake bold fonts off.
The status of this draft is that it seems to have more or less all
required features, but the syntax details of some of them are still
being investigated.
The CSS WG is requesting feedback. Please, send all comments to this
mailing list <www-style@w3.org> and please help us by starting the
subject of the e-mail message with the short name of the draft in square
brackets, i.e.: [css3-fonts]
For the CSS WG,
Bert
